Hero Talents

Patch 11.1 - Undermine(d)
Havoc Demon Hunter
  • Aldrachi Reaver and Fel-Scarred are the new Hero Talent tree options.Aldrachi Reaver is currently significantly ahead of Fel-Scarred in both AoE and Single-Target scenarios.
Aldrachi Reaver
Fel-Scarred
  • Art of the Glaive makes your Throw Glaive ability become Reaver's Glaive, an ability that is off global cooldown that allows you to to cast either one of two combinations of abilities to trigger a debuff on your current target and do additional damage
    1. Casting Blade Dance or Death Sweep after Reaver's Glaive into Chaos Strike or Annihilation makes you current target take 14% more damage by you for the next 20 seconds.
    2. Casting Chaos Strike or Annihilation first after throwing your Reaver's Glaive will make your target take 4% more damage by you for the next 20 seconds and make your next Blade Dance or Death Sweep do additional damage.
  • Additional to that after casting one of these two combinations you will get the Thrill of the Fight buff, which increases your attack speed and overall damage done by 20% for the next 10 seconds
  • The Fel-Scarred talent tree is generally more passive than the Aldrachi Reaver talent tree, Monster Rising it is a bit counter intuitive as on one hand, it enhances your abilities during Metamorphosis turning Eye Beam into Abyssal Gaze, Sigil of Flame into Sigil of Doom and Immolation Aura into Consuming Fire making them look fancy on your bar.
  • On the other hand however the tree has talents like Monster Rising, Burning Blades and Enduring Torment that significantly increase your output out of Metamorphosis.
  • Generally I would highly recommend to play this talent tree as it almost does the same damage as Aldrachi Reaver with way less effort, which allows you to focus on more important stuff than dealing damage.
  • Make sure to use your Sigil of Flame, Immolation Aura and Eye Beam before using Metamorphosis as Violent Transformation resets those abilities.

Gameplay Altering Talents

Discover all talents that significantly alter your gameplay within the Spec and Class Talent trees. This section gives a concise overview of these talents and their applications but for a more detailed look check out the Rotation and Deep Dive sections below.

Spec Tree

  • Essence Break
    • Does massive damage in a frontal cone and amplifies the damage done by your Chaos Strike and Blade Dance on all targets hit.
  • Cycle of Hatred
    • Every time you cast Eye Beam the ccooldown is reduced by 5 seconds, up to 20 seconds max.
  • Initiative

  • A Fire Inside
    • Grants an additional charge of Immolation Aura and gives a 30% chance of not consuming a charge when casting Immolation Aura.
  • Ragefire
    • Stores critical damage of your Immolation Aura and explodes them at the end of the each differentImmolation Aura duration.

Class Tree

  • Darkness
    • This group-wide defensive cooldown creates a zone of Darkness at the Havoc Demon Hunter's location, granting all allies within it a 15% chance to avoid all damage from incoming attacks.
  • The Hunt
    • This strong offensive Cooldown puts a major DoT on your target and every other target you charge through (capped at 5).
  • Soul Sigils
    • all your sigils spawn an additional Soul.

Hero Talents

  • Art of the Glaive
    • After casting Reaver's Glaive your next Chaos Strike and Blade Dance are empowered.
  • Reaver's Mark
    • Your next Chaos Strike applies a debuff on your current target, putting a Reaver's Mark on it which increases your damage to it by 7% or 14% if it was cast after Blade Dance.

Rotation

Patch 11.1 - Undermine(d)
Havoc Demon Hunter

Tier Set

  • 2-Set: Your spells and abilities have a chance to activate a Winning Strea! increasing the damage of your Blade Dance and Chaos Strike by 3% stacking up to 10 times. Blade Dance and Chaos Strike have a 15% chance to remove Winning Streak!
  • 4-Set: Winning Streak! persists for 8 sec after being removed by Blade Dance or Chaos Strike.

Single-Target

Aldrachi Reaver

Opener

  • The Havoc Demon Hunter's opener is very complex and it is important that you do it in this exact order to maximize your damage output.
Havoc Demon Hunter single-target opener in Mythic+
  • The goal of this opener is to maximize your damage output in the first 30 seconds of the fight and maximizing the uptime of all your buffs.
  • If there are relevant targets next to your main target this opener changes slightly, as you want to always cast Annihilation before Death Sweep in that case.

Priority List

This is a general priority you aim to maintain throughout the fight.

NOTE: ALWAYS CAST CHAOS STRIKE FIRST AFTER CASTING REAVER'S GLAIVE IN AoE SCENARIOS, UNLESS OFF TARGETS ARE NOT IMPORTANT.
!!!! MAKE SURE TO APPLY Reaver's Mark TO THE MOST IMPORTANT TARGET OF THE PACK. !!!!

  • Cast Immolation Aura
  • Cast Reaver's Glaive and activate Reaver's Mark on the most important target.
  • Cast Eye Beam on cooldown

  • Cast Sigil of Spite on cooldown
  • Cast The Hunt on cooldown
  • Cast Death Sweep

Deep dive

Patch 11.1 - Undermine(d)
Havoc Demon Hunter

Dead or Alive

The most important part of doing damage and being a useful part of your group is staying alive. With movement being a core part of your damage rotation you NEED to always be aware of your surroundings. Do not Fel Rush or Vengeful Retreat into frontal abilities or area of effect zones.

You cannot do damage while you are dead and neither can you stop abilities from going through.

Being able to execute the perfect rotation isn't going to help you if you are lying dead on the floor or if you need externals/healing that your tank would need otherwise.

Immolation Aura

Manage your Immolation Aura charges properly as it is the biggest portion of your damage breakdown in AoE scenarios. When you are about to overcap on charges but you don't have Fel Rush charges ready to spend on Inertia uptime just use your Immolation Aura charges and ignore Inertia.

Never overcap on Immolation Aura charges, no matter what!

Initiative Windows

Another important part of your damage is managing your Initiative windows properly. Remember that every single hostile enemy procs Initiative and Vengeful Retreat also resets it on EVERY hostile enemy.

You can optimize this by staying out of range of some enemies to procInitiative again later.

Haste ?!

Even though Haste Sims pretty poorly on paper, it is a great stat for multi target scenarios as it smooths your gameplay out by a lot.

Haste increases the amount of Immolation Aura charges you have as it decreases the recharge time and helps with Fury generation as well as helping you fit more abilities into your Demonic windows.

Understanding Mechanics

Rotational min-maxing is just one aspect of mastering a specialization, but there are numerous other key mechanics that influence your performance. Use the following guides to improve them.

Trinkets

Below you can find active and passive alternatives to our recommended trinkets. Do note that some trinkets are better than others depending on the mythic+ dungeon.

Active Trinket alternatives

  • House of Cards
    • On use mastery trinket with baseline mainstat, synergizes very well with the Havoc Demon Hunter bursty profile
  • Signet of the Priory
    • On use trinket with a 2minute cooldown, not quite as strong as House of Cards but easier to use as you can use it with your 2 minute cooldown every time
  • Noggenfogger Ultimate Deluxe
    • Very good 2 minute on use trinket for single target, however hard to get on a high item level as this is delve loot

Passive Trinket alternatives

  • Improvised Seaforium Pacemaker
    • Strongest passive trinket choice, gives you baseline agility and a high amount of crit with very high uptime during ur damage windows
  • Eye of Kezan
    • Strongest trinket for raid and / or prolonged fights, loses a high amount of value in M+ because the stacks drop rapidly when you are out of combat
  • Suspicious Energy Drink
    • passive trinket that procs mastery with a very high uptime

Embellishments

  • 2x Dawnthread Lining
    • It is a good choice if you have over 80% health most of the time and during your cooldowns.
    • The optimal slots to craft on are Wrists, Boots, Waist, or Cloak depending on your available gear.

Honorable mention

  • Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension
  • Darkmoon Sigil: Vivacity
  • Blessed Weapon Grip

Remaining Sparks

  • Crafted items are 675 item level and regular items are 678 on max item level, therefore, it's not beneficial to equip crafted items outside of your 2x embellishments unless you don't have access to other high item level gear on that slot.

Races

Patch 11.1 - Undermine(d)
Havoc Demon Hunter

For min-maxing a Havoc Demon Hunter in Mythic+, different racial traits can provide a tremendous benefit to your characters. If this is not your top goal, picking a race that fits your style works just as well.

  • Shadowmeld -- Nightelf
    • Provides nothing in Raid, but can be useful in Mythic+ in very niche situations.
  • Arcane Torrent -- Bloodelf
    • Removes 1 beneficial effect from hostile targets around you.
    • Generates 15 Fury.

Recommendation

It does not really matter which Race you chose for Havoc Demon Hunter, as both provide about the same DPS benefits, it is however advised to go Bloodelf as Arcane Torrent might come in handy in some situations where you need a quick AoE purge and can be used to gain 15 Fury while you are out of range of any target in combat.
